Today is the last day of this semester and it is a significant day for us. I would like to say thank you to all teachers today. Last August, when I came to Maple Leaf Academy, I couldn’t say “Good morning” properly. I must say, now I can speak in English and it is because of Maple Leaf Academy. …It was a great experience for me.- Artem Sych

MLA became a huge home for everyone and we made a lot of friends who with time began to feel like family. We shared good and bad moments, we laughed and cried together, and now we are graduating together. During our time her we have been taught not only about the language, but also Canadian Culture and to understand others better- Stella Dimova
